I have daughters so naturally I have to hear Beyonce here and there. When I’m driving the minivan its dad’s choice. I agree with SKcoppertele’s post. She can sing, I’ll give her that and I’ve even see her play the piano so I won’t deny her being a musician. However, where I completely lost whatever respect I may have had was her having the maternity ward at Lennox Hill Hospital locked down when she gave birth and the fact that the literally stole the song “If I were a Boy” from an unknown artist at the time and recorded it without her even knowing.

I'm 55 years old and to me, R & B stands for acts such as Booker T & The MG's , Otis Redding , The Chi-Lites , The Spinners, Etta James, etc. Not this top 40 mass produced crap that saturates the radio airwaves today. No sirree ! Beyoncé even though she did a excellent rendition of " At Last " in that movie Cadillac Records, is not R&B as far as I'm concerned. She's just the typical top 40 drudge that the brain washed masses support and buy.
